Series on Covey’s 7 habits of highly effective people

This is the announcement of the start of a series of posts on Stephen Covey’s seven habits of highly effective people. It will consist of 7 posts (geez I wonder how he got to that number).

I learned about Covey’s habits for the first time in 2000 when I worked as a management trainee for Ormit (site unfortunately only available in dutch). At Ormit I had the opportunity to get a lot of training and courses. Seven habits was one of them, and the training appealed to me. Mostly because the title of the training was Effective leadership, and I have a thing for leadership…

The training was a very memorable one, and it was given by the (very successful Dutch) trainer Remco Claassen (dutch again). It covered 3.5 days (nearly non-stop), and it was mind blowing and funny at the same time. Remco used a mix of theory and experience-based training, that proved to be very powerful. Remco thanks!

I will be covering the 7 habits in Covey’s order in the coming 7 weeks. New posts will appear every tuesday, and henceforth tuesday will be habits tuesday.

Can’t wait? You can order Stephen Covey’s book at Amazon:
The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People (also available as audiobook).
